I actually like the looks of that. While the seat looks interesting, I'm not sure it'll feel very interesting after a gallon or two of gas. But it's obviously intended as a commuter vehicle - not a distance ride. For that, it's probably excellent.

yeah, i heard that it won't really be a production bike...probably be too expensive anyway.
There was a guy cruising around our neighborhood with a motorized bike the other day...looked like a stretched out cruiser bike kinda like that one Serow...

Kevlar band, no chain!

Nice little city bike, you could surely carry stuff
in a basket or rucksack, asians are experts on that.

Yes, the future will be very nice indeed
...for those who can afford it.

Has anyone mentioned the pricing on this?

Italy boasted an Italian-made Honda that was rated 50 Km/liter = 120+mpg

I love it... The seat is not for me, but the rest is great.
